Glo: A sustainable agricultural system
Minister Farrakhan
Today, I’m going to ask of you something that you probably wouldn’t expect me to ask. I’m going to ask you to take a moment of your time to see what Minister Farrakhan is doing. Not because I am Muslim and not because I am planning to be come Muslim. I’m asking you to look, listen and learn because this is not a Muslim or Christian issue. This is a human issue and this is about your life, your health and your future.
It has long been my understanding that African American people were told to come north and flee the south for the sole purpose of gaining access to their land, their black gold. The land your ancestors fought and died for. Why did so many people readily give it up and at what cost ? Many of you won’t listen to me and that is fine but please do listen to Minister Farrakhan.
He understands the necessity of developing a sustainable agricultural system.
Excerpt taken from his website:
We have estimated that it will require 51 million acres of land to provide enough food for one meal per day for 40 million people if they eat meat. If meat and milk is not included, then the required land drops to 6.3 million acres of cropland or 9,852 square miles. Purchasing 6.3 million acres of cropland would require 6 billion dollars plus an additional 2 billion dollars for equipment. It would also require at least 18,000 farmers with the proper equipment to run such operations.
However, black people still retain 2.5 million acres. We must began to consider that 2.5 million acres as a part of our responsibility to insure its proper utilization for the feeding or our people. Our 1600 acre farm in Georgia must be viewed as the catalyst for the development of our sustainable food and fiber production system. However, we should not look to this farm for our total food needs. We must encourage the development of alliances with the 18,000 black farmers still in operation along with purchasing more land and developing more farmers. To this end we present the first installment of the organizational structure and goals of the Ministry of Agriculture.
Now my question to you is Would you like to live off the land ? Would you like to wake up knowing that your land is full of food so that you and children will never go naked or hungry ? Do you imagine what the freedom of owning your own land feels like ? Create the world you wish to live in.
Maybe you don’t agree with his religious beliefs and that’s fine. You are entitled to your own opinion as we all are. You won’t ever hear me condom or condemn anyone based on their religious beliefs alone. I heard Minister Farrakhan speak when I was 11 years old and I’ve taken notice of his wisdom since then. This man is wise and I believe in his ability to lead
